Extra Details:: Bassianolide is a cyclodepsipeptide insecticide synthesized by the fungal species B. bassiana and V. lecanii.1,2 In vivo, the oral administration of bassianolide induces atony in the silkworm B. mori at a concentration of 4 ppm and is lethal at doses exceeding 8 ppm. Atony is similarly induced in silkworm larvae at oral doses as low as 2ug/larva.1 In isolated guinea pig smooth muscle tissue, bassianolide (0.01-1uM) specifically inhibits the muscarinic, but not nicotinic, receptor-induced contractions in response to acetylcholine.3,4 Synonyms: Cyclo[(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoyl-N-methyl-L-leucyl-(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoyl-N-methyl-L-leucyl-(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoyl-N-methyl-L-leucyl-(2R)-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoyl-N-methyl-L-leucyl] CAS Number: 64763-82-2 Molecular Formula: C₄₈H₈₄N₄O₁₂ Molecular Weight: 909.2 Solubility: DMF, DMSO, Ethanol and Methanol Appearance: Supplied as a solid Purity: ≥95% Storage and Stability: Store at -20°C.
